Tag Archives: Friday Flair

You’ve been waiting for it all week, right??

THIS PIECE convicted me, soothed my soul, and made me want to reach out and hug the author because she really understands.

I’ve been catching up on my blog reading. Last week, Pete Wilson posted THIS VIDEO—a beautiful picture of the depth of God’s grace and how it changes lives.

My friend Annie is going to (and may already have arrived in) Capetown, South Africa with Mocha Club. I love love love THIS POST on her blog entitled Annie’s Shoes.

You can follow her journey here:

I’ve decided to add a link to Friday Flair with my favorite Bible verse(s) of the week. What do you think? This particular passage keeps popping up in my life lately; when that happens, I know that God is teaching me something. I hope you pray these words along with me today: Psalm 139

Happy Friday!

Since I leave for Dublin tomorrow, I wanted to keep the Irish theme going for Friday Flair:

• Like I mentioned in Wednesday’s post, Saint Patrick was actually a missionary to his home country of Ireland. As I prepare for my trip to Dublin, I have been studying Patrick’s written confession as found HERE. It’s really long, so you may not want to read the whole thing. But the first three paragraphs are worth reading. My favorite line is: 

“… our way to repay him is to exalt him and confess his wonders before every nation under heaven.”

• Are you an expert in all things Irish?
  Take this quiz and find out!

 

• I keep listening to this song by MercyMe lately. One of the verses has become my prayer for the Ireland mission trip:

Such a tiny offering compared to Calvary
Nevertheless we lay it at Your feet.

• One more piece of flair that is 100% not related to Ireland; however, I must include it because every single guy should read this post (girls, you will love it, too). It is hilarious and oh. so. true.

Stay tuned—I am hoping to blog from Dublin. I can’t wait to share all of my experiences with you!

I have decided to start posting links on Fridays—a few pieces of flair for your upcoming weekend! These are links to blog posts, news stories, recipes, or other web items that are worth checking out. I plan to post every Friday. If you see anything throughout the week that is Friday Flair-worthy, send me a quick email to allison.anointedwithgrace [at] gmail [dot] com.

• Thanks to Nashvillest , I cannot wait to try this new restaurant—any Nashville friends game? Hopefully it will live up to my dream of a SATCO for thirty-somethings.

• This video is a little long but absolutely hilarious! All of it, but especially the part about The Notebook.

• And finally, this dessert recipe is one of my summer favorites.

Happy Friday!
